    Whoomp! (There It Is) is the debut studio album by American rap duo Tag Team. It was released on July 8, 1993, via Bellmark/Life Records. The recording sessions took place at McMix Production Services, in Atlanta. The album was produced by members Steve Roll'n and DC the Brain Supreme.

    Whoomp! (There It Is) album peaked at number 39 on the Billboard 200 and number 28 on the Top R&B Albums chart in the United States. On January 27, 1994, it was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America. Its lead single, "Whoomp! (There It Is)", made it to No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 4 on the Hot Rap Singles chart; and, by February 24, 1994, reached 4x Platinum certification by the RIAA.

    Critical reception

    [edit]

    In his retrospective review for AllMusic, Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote: "although "Whoomp! (There It Is)" is a wonderfully mindless single, it can't carry an entire album alone. Nothing else on Tag Team's debut album comes close to matching the delirious chanting and rolling beats of the single, making Whoomp! (There It Is) a pretty tedious affair".[1]
